EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "St. Victor" created around 1350 by the Master of the Palazzo Venezia Madonna. Painted with tempera on panel and adorned with a gold ground, this masterpiece measures an impressive 158x47.5 cm and is currently housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark. Previously attributed to renowned artists Lippo Memmi and Simone Martini, this painting depicts St. Victor alongside his fellow martyr, Corona. Both individuals faced persecution due to their unwavering Christian faith in Roman Syria during ancient times. The composition exudes a sense of religious devotion and legend as it portrays St. Victor holding a palm branch symbolizing martyrdom while standing against a backdrop reminiscent of the Roman Empire's influence. The use of wood as the canvas material adds depth and texture to this Gothic-style altarpiece. With its intricate details and masterful execution, this Italian artwork reflects the profound impact that Christianity had on society during that period. The olive branch held by St. Victor signifies peace amidst turmoil, further emphasizing his steadfast dedication to his beliefs. This remarkable piece not only serves as a testament to religious devotion but also highlights the artistic prowess of Sienese painters like Martini and Memmi who were instrumental in shaping Italy's rich artistic heritage during this era.
